Chinese Master Chef Chan Choo Kean and Chef Wu Chee Keong are pleased to introduce us an exciting series of Shuang Wei moon cakes for this upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival. Our personal favorites are definitely the moon cakes with an alcoholic twist.
Apart from sampling the moon cakes, Chef Wu Chee Keong demonstrated the steps in making a snow skin moon cake.
First, flatten the ball of dough into a patty.
Next, slowly wrap the ball filling up.
Gently mold the edges to enclose the filling and seal it up.
Dust a thin layer of flour into the mould and press the filled dough firmly into the mould to get the shape of the moon cake.
Then, tap lightly on the left and right to dislodge it.
Tada! It might looked deceptively simple but believe me, a lot of effort goes into a single perfect moon cake.
Priced between RM 21 to RM 23 per piece, Shuang Wei moon cakes made with less sugar, free of artificial coloring and preservatives are available for take-away from 11am - 9.30pm daily at West Lake Garden Chinese Restaurant from 12 July to 12 September 2011. Presented in an elegantly designed gift box, Shuang Wei moon cakes are also ideal as a corporate gift with West Lake Garden's Secret Treasures or Timeless Classic gift sets at a mere RM 98 for 4 selected flavors.

In addition to the overall moon cakes experience, we were lucky to sample several dishes from West Lake Garden specially prepared for us. Braised Scallop with Crab Meat in Sweet Corn Broth Drizzled with Truffle Oil, it was light with a gentle sweetness from the corn broth and the decadent drizzle of truffle oil at the end absolutely made this soup luxurious.
Crispy Ginger Steamed Cod Fish, fresh and velvety smooth cod fish with a wonderful fragrance from the light soy sauce and crispy deep-fried ginger.
Crispy Noodles with Tiger Prawn. Surprisingly, the crispy noodles which soaked up the gravy were unusually good and almost stole the show away from the fresh tiger prawn.
